A first work step produces rhythmic undulations. The quality of the paper used is crucial in this process. Subsequently, paper found objects are collaged in. The rhythm of the color values suggests how a waterfall accelerates as it falls: In these waterfall motifs, the intention of wanting to depict time sequences and movement in the picture leads to a vertical sequence of "color paths."
The "cañas", wrapped in Japanese paper, are made of straw sticks. The artist lets these sticks fall according to the Mikado principle, then fixes the randomly created result with glue. In this way, swirls, eddies and bundle-like forms are created, which sometimes remind one of
reminiscent of sheaves of grain. These shapes can be described as artistic transformations of physical forces that are
of physical forces that act in the same way in nature. In terms of presentation aesthetics, the "Cañas" are staged in exhibition situations as reliefs or wall objects.
